While Kate Gosselin continues to defend herself against critics who believe she shouldn’t be doing Dancing With The Stars, the latest is now a new report claiming her kids are “depressed” because she is away so much.

According to UsWeekly, Kate’s 9-year-old twins and 5-year-old sextuplets are struggling with her going to Los Angeles constantly to promote the show. A source tells UsWeekly Kate, 34, spent Feb. 21 to March 5 away from her kids.

The source says the Jon & Kate Plus 8 mom left the kids with five nannies, who were constantly being asked “When is Mommy coming home?”

The Gosselin twins Cara and Maddy are reportedly taking it the hardest as they “seem depressed when Kate isn’t around,” another source says. On the other hand, five-year old sons Aaden, Collin and Joel, also “got into trouble at school for talking back to teachers,” adds the source.

The insider also reveals that Kate justifies her situation because she wants to be a star and even compares herself to Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.

Meanwhile, a new report by the NYPost is also painting Kate in a bad light. According to the Post, Kate is being a “total diva” on the set of DWTS by snubbing the other contestants and behaving frostily to crew members. A source from the set of DWTS however denies this.
